Error : DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN Google Cloud Platform, WordPress site, Custom Domain
My name-servers are correct and I did not change anything but my site suddenly started showing DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN
. I am using Google Cloud Platform to host the site - "Wordpress: Click to deploy". I followed the tutorial on "One page zen" to setup the site. Please help, my domain is : AnimeDimension.cf
.
Cloud DNS details :
This is mostly like a DNS configuration error, also note your question is missing the information on DNS details. That is not a problem though, you can use dig +trace
to find the name servers.
You domain is not resolving to an IP address, therefore there is no way for users to hit your wordpress site.
$dig animedimension.cf +short
$dig www.animedimension.cf +short
Both queries returned nothing. Tracing your dns returns Google's name servers, and directly querying those name servers returns nothing.
animedimension.cf. 300 IN NS ns-cloud-c1.googledomains.com.
animedimension.cf. 300 IN NS ns-cloud-c2.googledomains.com.
animedimension.cf. 300 IN NS ns-cloud-c3.googledomains.com.
animedimension.cf. 300 IN NS ns-cloud-c4.googledomains.com.
$dig @ns-cloud-c1.googledomains.com. animedimension.cf. +short
Make sure to point your domain to the IP address of your web server. If you are using GCP cloud dns, use this link - https://cloud.google.com/dns/docs/quickstart - to setup dns.
